Neuro-Inclusion & Positive Leadership
“Positive energizers are uplifting, trustworthy, and help others flourish. They create and sustain vitality in others.”
High-performance and social impact through neuro-inclusive culture.
I help organizations build calm, creative, and effective teams—combining energizing leadership (Kim Cameron), Job Crafting, and clear team rituals.
I translate practice and evidence into reliable performance — especially for ADHD talent. I build harmonious, neuro-inclusive cultures and create energizing environments where people thrive and teams deliver with engagement, excellence, and innovation.
I combine Positive Leadership, strengths-based development, embodiment methods, and structured creativity processes—turning ideas into prototypes and market-ready solutions, while employee retention rises and execution speeds up.
